This gorgeous little cabinet sized French doll has a perfect head that's marked on the back: ?3, SFBJ, 60, PARIS, -0-. Her complexion and face painting is nearly perfect. She has her original paperweight eyes in their original plaster setting. Paperweight eyes are never sleep eyes because they are not round. These dolls were all hand painted so there can be great differences in how they look. This doll is exceptionally lovely. She has an artist check mark incised on... the back of her head. She's on her original fully jointed body. It has been repainted at some time but this is one of the best bodies of this type I've seen. The torso is very strong and the limbs are mostly wooden. It's in beautiful condition and has recently been restrung. Her underwear, shoes and socks are replaced but her fine, fully lined adorable red dress is original. It's the perfect style for this perfect doll. She has a pressed styrofoam pate that is lightly attached to the head. Her beautiful replaced mohair wig is not attached. This is a high quality doll that's a pleasure to own.
